Frequently asked questions

This course is designed for managers, team leaders, and professionals who want to understand how AI can support workplace decision-making. It is especially useful for leaders responsible for guiding teams, communicating with stakeholders, and evaluating AI-generated insights in an AI-enabled workplace.

No prior technical or programming experience is required. The course focuses on how leaders use AI insights to support decisions, not how to build AI systems. All concepts are explained in practical terms so professionals from any background can apply them.

You will learn how AI can analyze data, identify patterns, and generate insights that support leadership decisions. The course also explains when human judgment, ethics, and context should guide the final decision instead of relying solely on AI outputs.

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
